Question 34260This question is from textbook
: In this word problem I got the equation 6(C+1800). I have to find C-that's if the equation is even right. The problem reads: The Alpine Valley Ski Shop sells both cross-country and downhill skis. During a year they sell six times as many dowmhill skis as cross country skis. Determine the number of pairs of cross-country skis sold if the difference in the number of pairs of downhill and cross-country skis sold is 1800. This question is from textbook

6C-C=1800 OR 5C=1800 OR C=360 CROSS COUNTRY SKIS SOLD AND 6*360 DOWNHILL SKIS OR 2160 THE DIFFERENCE BEING 2160-360=1800
